The Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce is made up of amazing individuals playing an active role in making our local business and economy stronger. With Thanksgiving just a few weeks away, we wanted to thank our Chairman’s Circle Sponsors, among others, who support and positively impact our business community.

Chairman’s Circle Sponsors:

Our Chamber doesn’t run without the involvement of our Chairman’s Circle Sponsors. These organizations not only contribute funds to ensure the success of the Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce, but most of them donate time, resources and manpower as well.

Chairman’s Circle Sponsors contribute to our local business community by sponsoring Chino Valley Chamber events like the Business Expo, Holiday Luncheon, Salute to Public Safety, Taste of the Chino Valley, State of the City for Chino and Chino Hills, and our Installation Dinner.

In return, these organizations receive sponsorship benefits at these events, are promoted year-round on our website, emails, marketing materials, and social media channels, and value that comes from positively impacting our local economy by supporting local business – among many other things.

The Chamber has worked with many organizations for a number of years, and some have recently joined us.

We’d like to start by thanking those organizations who have backed us for a number of years.

Business Expo a Success:

The Business Expo is probably the largest event the Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce puts on every year, and this year our Business Expo was the largest it has ever been. We sold out the Business Expo with 84 business booths to make this one our best attended Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce Business Expo.

It wouldn’t have been possible without the involvement of the Business Expo Committee and our sponsors who helped make our Business Expo a success.

And, lastly, thank you to those who volunteered their unique talents and traits to the Business Expo including Jimmy Garcia from Retro Rolling Video Games, Michael Anderson from Rockstars of Tomorrow, Rebecca Mocarski from Fred Astaire Dance Studio, the numerous stores in the Shoppes at Chino Hills who participated in our fashion show and, most importantly, the Shoppes at Chino Hills for giving us the opportunity to host our Business Expo at The Shoppes.

We want your feedback on the Business Expo so we can make next years event even better. We want your feedback so much that we’re going to give one of our respondents a $250 gift card to The Shoppes at Chino Hills. The winner will be chosen at random on Monday, November 12 so be sure to give us your feedback by the end of this week.

Monthly Mixer on the 3rd Thursday of Every Month from 5pm to 7pm:

Thank you to everyone for your involvement with the Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce and to our Chairman’s Circle Sponsors. We have so much to be grateful for … thank you for being a part of the business community and the Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce.
